Historic/Vintage Properties: In addition to "traditional" real estate business, I am very privileged to have had the opportunity to provide real estate services to buyers and sellers of properties of historic significance and vintage style in and around Corvallis, Oregon-Each property, like its current or future owner has its own character, style and needs. Finding the right personality for the property, meeting the needs and goals of the vintage home buying or selling public and working through the unique challenges presented by each property is what makes this segment of the market so satisfying.

I work primarily in Linn and Benton Counties, which include Albany, Philomath, Corvallis and the surrounding areas. There are many historically significant homes in the area, especially around the Oregon State University campus, in the historic Albany downtown as well as rural properties in the surrounding countryside. 

First Time Homebuyers:  One of the most emotionally satisfying aspects of my career is the opportunity to mentor and provide services to first time homebuyers.  I feel that I'm doing my part to protect their interests as they pursue the "American Dream" of homeownership.  It's not always an easy path, nor a fast one, but it's one of the most rewarding aspects of my business.  The process of teaching the language of real estate and the processes associated with this major financial commitment are immensely satisfying.  Having been trained participate in the teaching of the required Homeownership Training Classes sponsored by Willamette Neighborhood Housing Services (formerly Corvallis Neighborhood Housing Services) enhances my ability to assist my first-time homebuyer clients
